In a heartening collaboration, Ms. Queen of the World India 2023, Gayatri Dave, and the esteemed Clinical Nutritionist, teamed up with Salaam Baalak Trust, a distinguished non-profit organization dedicated to supporting street children. The partnership successfully organized a day of excitement and enthusiasm for underprivileged children in Mumbai.
Founded in 1989, Salaam Baalak Trust has been steadfast in providing essential support such as food, shelter, and education to street kids across all five centers in Mumbai. From tug of war, khokho, 100m race to the spirited game of Cricket, the event delivered something special for every child between the ages of 5 and 15. Participants not only had the chance to engage in various sports but were also recognized for their efforts. Winners in each sport were honored with a trophy, while all participants received well-deserved participation medals.
Despite her international pageant commitments, Gayatri Dave remained a dedicated advocate for children’s health and education, a commitment showcased through her collaboration with Salaam Baalak Trust. Reflecting on the event, Gayatri mentioned, “The smiles on the faces of these children today are the true trophies. It was a day filled with laughter, sportsmanship, and the sheer joy of being kids. Every child deserves such moments of happiness.”
